It’s called watching the clock and getting flustered trying to not run over time.

It’s called dementia

Thankfully that’s only a problem for one of the candidates, right? Right?

Oh no, definitely both of them suck, and both are showing cognitive decline. Biden is just showing it worse. Or maybe it’s just that Trump has always been a rambling moron, so it’s harder to tell if he’s having a senior moment or just being himself.

Either way, Trump’s supporters are too stupid to care or even notice his mental health. Half of them probably don’t even believe in mental health. The people Biden needs to vote for him do notice and care though. It’s just a fact of life, and the DNC really needs to come to terms with reality.

Not really. I’ve had some close family get dementia, it doesn’t look like that. If Biden had dementia, there is 0 chance they would have stood him up for a debate. It’s really a condition called “fucking old”.

This definitely is dementia. I know it from my own family. Especially with people having good days and bad days. The talk now about how Biden just had a bad day, is just reinforcing it.

Trump was showing what it looks like to “just be” “fucking old”. Probably by the time he is Bidens age he will be equally far demented, but he is three years younger. There is absolutely no way that Biden won’t be a complete vegetable in the last year of the upcoming term and for Trump it is a pretty solid risk.

The DNC needs to switch out Biden now. They should have done it many months ago, but the denial and delusion about Bidens health are going to help make Trump win this one.

It’s always fun when people suddenly forget that Biden has a stutter. I’m not even 40 and, perfectly healthy, sometimes can’t finish a fucking sentence and just move on to the next point. The only reason people don’t say I have dementia is because I don’t look old enough to hurl the accusation.

How many stuttering acting presidents do you remember?

Also Biden isn’t just having a stutter. It was clear he lost his train of thought multiple times, like destroying medicaid, constantly mixing thousands, millions, billions and trillions or his talk about abortion trimesters.

This sounded like they gave him elaborate sentences to remember beforehand and he butchered them all, because of not learning them by heart and not fully grasping what they actually mean.

Meanwhile Trump was just doing Trump and Biden came wholly unprepared for that. Repeating what Trump said with “the idea that … is ridiculous” is just repeating what he said, further giving it agency. How could they be unprepared for Trump being Trump after 8 years of him already?

Sounds like you’ve never socialized with others who have a stutter. Instead of understanding how different mental/physical impairments affect people, you’d rather just make assumptions and baseless claims that confirm your own biases. Biden’s stutter is a well documented ailment that has affected him, in similar ways, for a long time - we just got to see it when he was clearly under the weather.

You can factually disagree with Biden’s policies, but to create this elaborate scenario out of whole cloth and purposely ignore Trump’s own verbal missteps just tells all of us all we need to know about why you commented.

Elections are all about optics, and the optics are he might not even make it to the general election, let alone the following 4 years if elected. The populace is starting to wonder how much Biden is just a real life Weekend at Bernies now where they really weren’t before.
